Before Using the Printer Controller Chapter 1
4. Settings Made on the Machine
The following functions must be set on the machine using its Utility Mode, as they relate to the printer controller.
Priority Device
Select the priority of use of the machine, either as a copier or printer.
Copier: The machine is used as a copier.
The machine starts the print cycle only after it has received the entire data of a particular print job.
The machine can be used for copying, since it starts printing only after it has received the entire data of the job for printing. This means that more time is available to you for copying, but you have to wait for a longer time before a particular print job is done.
Printer: The machine is used as a printer.
The machine starts the print cycle before it completes receiving the entire data of a particular print job.
On receiving the data for one page, the machine starts printing, accepting no other job for copying. This means that less time is available to you for copying, but you do not have to wait long before a particular print job is done.
On Line
This function is the same as that available in ordinary printers as On Line/Off Line. Select On Line normally.
Test Print
The following six types of test print will be output when a test print is run from the machine:
∙CONFIGURAITON PRINT ∙ NETWORK CONFIGURATION PRINT
∙ PCL FONT LIST | ∙ PCL DEMO PRINT |
∙ PS FONT LIST | ∙ PS DEMO PRINT |
Here is the procedure to run a test print. These operations are made on the machine.
1.Press the Utility key.
2.Press the Test Print key.
NOTE
